Delighted with the win
Delighted

But

I had a.ticket should have been there.
Am heading for airport at 2am tomorrow morning, dublin airport.
So couldn't go.

That's the 9th game this season I've had a ticket for that I couldn't get too.
And we've won every one.
Shit

In fact the only game I've made this season was the carling cup final.
Which we lost on pens.

Maybe that's it......

Still. Unreal game of football, its games like that that make you love watching football.

Attended a Jane Goodall lecture last night. That was a life goal. She's a fascinating and amazing woman, and having seen her live was a real treat!

So jealous.

That's the problem with international travel - it would be fantastic if it weren't for all the bloody foreigners.

I'm at it with the pencils again - it's my best friend's little girl's fifth birthday next month, and as they've just painted her room up for her I said I'd do something Disney princess related to go on her wall. She requested Elsa and Ana from Frozen and Tiana from The Princess and the Frog. About half way done here - I can't wait to see her little face!

Well my friend is off of the respirator now which is pretty huge. Still unconscious and unresponsive but breathing unaided is massive.

Glad to have my boys a bit later today. Benefit of picking them up on Friday so the ex has to pick them up today. And it is nasty outside and warm and happy inside.

Geekon is over so I can finally relax a little

Rob Denbleyker and his wife complimented me on my interviewing skills, and were very satisfied with their first visit to Norway! FUCK YEAH!

And the interview with Siri Pettersen couldn't have gone better

Now, all I have to do is finish the first volume of the Norwegian Dragonball and send it to the printers, and then I can REALLY relax. Looking forward to it.

Things and stuffs...and other important objects.

One client left to hand over to colleagues and I've got as good as nothing to do for my last 2 weeks work before maternity leave. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

The bathroom and kitchen are virtually finished. Just nursery left to do and the DIY odyssey can finally end.....until the next thing but the monstrous brick fireplace is no longer looking so monstrous in comparison to the will power needed to do up the living room.

Right now I'd rather rip that fireplace down with my bare hands than get pregnant again! Five months of puking, 2 months of feeling mostly ok and 1 month of limping around. And childbirth still to look forward to. Pregnancy does not have a lot going for it so far.

But ... but ... the glowing! Or is that just rage?

Or maybe something you picked up at work?

Speaking from no experience whatsoever, as far as I understand it, the good parts are just and for years after the pregnancy bit.

While reading WITCHES ABROAD, I've realized that though I've read a chunk of the Discworld, I still have 27 books YET to read in the series. And that makes me very happy.

One of the best aspects of Discworld IMO. I love prolific awesome writers!

In fact I was just thinking of this regarding Malazan and ASOIAF

GRRM brought out Storm of Swords in 2000. From then till 2016,he has brought out A Feast For Crows, A Dance With Dragons, and the three Hedge Knight Novellas

In 2000 SE brought out DG. Till 2016, we got the other 8 books, 6 B&KB Novellas, FoD, FoL, Wilful Child. We are one lucky group of fans!

And Terry Pratchett from 2000 wrote 17 Discworld and 2 Non-Discworld novels.

And of the GRRM novels, ADWD was terrible and AFFC was only marginally better...

Reverse for me. ADWD better than AFFC simply because I hate Brienne. But ASOS was so good And after that, after huge waits, those two books.

No seriously SE rocks.
